Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Chapter 372 Past and Present
In the past few days of walking with Gu Xu, Zhao Yan has already seen this guy's terrifying cultivation talent of epiphany every three days and breakthrough every five days.

Not long ago, she was secretly proud of breaking through the fifth realm in less than two years.

But now she deeply understands that "there are mountains beyond mountains, and there are people beyond people".

In just a few minutes, the aura on Gu Xu's body increased, comparable to the achievements of many monks who have retreated for several years.

About a quarter of an hour later, Gu Xu finished his practice and opened his eyes.

Zhao Yan noticed that his eyes had once again turned into a starry indigo blue—just like when he was in the royal chamber that day, he suddenly had the air of calmness and prestige of a person who had been in power for a long time. People only dare to look up and dare not approach.

"Looking at you like this, the harvest should not be small." She took a step forward and smiled faintly. "I feel that your aura is no less than that of ordinary fifth-level monks."

"That's true," Gu Xu nodded, his eyes turned back black, and his attitude was not at all modest. "I feel that there is only a film of distance between me and the 'Naihe Bridge' realm. At present, I need to find An opportunity to break through this barrier."

"Have you thought about your method of breaking through the realm?" Zhao Yan asked, "Have you ever thought about using 'Severing Seven Emotions'?"

Gu Xu shook his head lightly: "You should know that 'cutting the seven emotions' is a shortcut, but it has obvious side effects, which will limit the potential for future development."

Zhao Yan was silent for a while, lowered her head and said, "I use 'Zhan Qiqing'."

"Which love was cut off?"

Gu Xu wondered in his heart, since Zhao Yan hated physical contact with men, would she cut off her "desire" like Chu Fengge, in order to pursue the realm of "without a man in my heart, draw a gun and be a god of nature"?

"Fear." Zhao Yan answered truthfully.

Thinking of Zhao Yan's free and unrestrained style of doing things many years ago, and the rumors that she killed all over the capital in a red dress, Gu Xu smiled: "It is indeed a choice you will make."

"Actually, the reason why I chose to 'cut the seven emotions' is because I want to improve my strength as soon as possible and avenge my mother as soon as possible." Zhao Yan took a deep breath, "The enemy is hidden in the dark and powerful. If I don't kill To be afraid, I am afraid that one day I will lose heart and give up the whole plan."

"Then have you ever regretted it?" Gu Xu looked into her pair of autumn-like eyes.

The sun crushed it, and the black was rubbed with gold.

"I don't know," Zhao Yan said softly, "After I knew that my enemy was Emperor Tianxing, I felt a little confused, because he has the eighth realm of cultivation and the famous weapon 'Tai'a Sword'. Whether or not I use 'Severing Seven Emotions', it is very likely that I will spend my whole life, and it will be difficult to surpass him in cultivation."

Gu Xu murmured silently in his heart: If you knew that Emperor Tianxing was the lackey of "Taishang Haotian" and could invoke the power of Lei Jie through the "Tai'a Sword", you would be even more desperate.

"In addition, after I broke through the fifth realm, I felt that my cultivation had reached a bottleneck," Zhao Yan continued after a short pause, "Before this, my practice had been strictly following the "Nirvana Sutra". Based on the teachings of my fathers. But now, I find it difficult for me to get rid of the "Nirvana Sutra" to find my own 'Tao' and knock on the gate of Fengdu."

"How did your father do it? Did he give you advice on this?"

"He just drank all day and almost never discussed these things with me."

"What about your other elders? For example, the high priest of Jicheng, and the instructor who taught you martial arts?"

"They think that I don't need to look for the so-called 'Tao'. As long as I can find the memory of my previous life, I can naturally become a saint."

"In your previous life...was it the legendary saint who followed the 'God of Fire'?"

"They all said that," Zhao Yan found a flat stone and sat down, her white and elastic legs crossed, her skin glowing with luster, "I didn't believe it before, but after you helped me awaken After seeing the power in my blood, some strange and familiar phantoms often pop up in my mind, and I am dubious."

"By the way," she put her elbows on her knees and her chin with her right hand, and looked up at Gu Xu, "the first time I saw you, you gave me a feeling of deja vu. At that time I wondered if it was because our two previous lives had met before."

Gu Xu was silent, not knowing how to respond for a moment.

People in the Great Wilderness will indeed reincarnate from human to ghost again and again, and from ghost to human again, and experience the reincarnation of suffering one after another under the laws formulated by "Tai Shang Hao Tian".

But he is a traveler from Earth.Even if there is a previous life, they should live in another world.

A few minutes later, he looked at the "astrolabe" in his hand, changed the subject and said, "Just now I learned a very useful spell from a new fragment of this magic weapon."

"What spell?"

Gu Xu's words aroused Zhao Yan's curiosity.She knew that Gu Xu was a very picky person, and the spells he thought were "useful" must be extraordinary.

"I don't know what it's called," Gu Xu replied, "After mastering this spell, as long as you know the star of a monk's life palace, you can deduce the other party's fortune and actions in the next period of time." actions. If the opponent’s cultivation base is lower than your own, you can even exert a certain degree of influence on his fortune.”

"This spell has limitations." Zhao Yandai frowned slightly. "If my understanding is correct, if you want to know the ruler of a person's life, you need to know his birth date first. But usually, people don't I will not tell others my birth date."

"This magic weapon has another function," Gu Xu said with a smile, "It allows me to see other people's fate palace ruler at a glance. For example...Miss Zhao, your fate palace ruler is the Pojun star, right?"

"That's right," Zhao Yan said calmly, "Why don't you help me figure out my future fortune?"

She has long been used to Gu Xu playing some fancy tricks from time to time.She was not at all surprised that the other party revealed her ruling star in one word.

"Pojun's five elements belong to water. He is a star and is in charge of the world's 'breaking consumption'. He often decides on a single thought, has a strong subjective consciousness, and has a brave and adventurous personality. He will never give up halfway when he decides to help. Go all out—"

"You really know how to pick nice words," Zhao Yan interrupted him, with an ambiguous smile on his face, "Many years ago, a fortune teller came to Jicheng, Youzhou, and used astrology to tell me and me My cousin Zhao Yu had a fortune-telling and told me something similar to yours.

"But after saying this, he suddenly changed the topic."
